Publisher: International Controller Association ICV | Poznań Office
Dear Readers!
Spring was the time full
of interesting ICV
events. Not only did we
have the 39th Controller
Congress in Munich for the
whole Controller Community (you can read the relation in
this issue) but also ICV members countries organized a lot
meetings and conferences — in English and in the country
languages. On our homepage you can follow past and
future events. Let’s stay in touch!
On the General Meeting in May the Board showed how the
ICV sustainably grows through the acquisition of numerous
corporate members: we are very close to 100—maybe
your company will be our 100th member? Also in May Dr.
Albrecht Deyhle celebrated his 80th birthday - I’m happy
we all could congratulate him at the Controller Congress!
In the Bulletin you can read an article by Dr. Hendrik Vater
translated from German. He presents the topic of invest
management in a value-oriented company. We also have
other publications in the Association: there is a new state-
ment printed: Green Controllling (one of the most important
topics for all companies thinking about the future develop-
ment) and a new White Paper: Big Data (more in this is-
sue)!
If you think the controlling solution in your company dese-
rve some recognition, take part in our competitions: there
are three prizes offered by the ICV and our Partners: Inter-
national Controller Award, Controlling-Newcomer Award
and Green Controlling Award (we’re proud that WiWo Gre-
en—the leading German economy magazine is our media
partner again)! Take the challenge! Among the winners of
the prizes are Lufthansa AG, Hansgrohe AG and Volkswa-
gen AG!
I hope you have great holidays and come back to work
with new ideas! I’m looking forward to seeing you at the
Autumn events!
Much pleasure while reading!
Yours

Dear Sir / Madam in the Controller Community,
I am thrilled after reading your messages on the occasion of
my 80th birthday. I was able to personally meet many of those
who have written me wishes on the blog: at the General Me-
eting of the ICV members May 18 in Westin Hotel, as well as at
the Controller Congress on May 19. I was also able to shake
your hands!
I wish you all the best in your professional and private lives!
And I thank you a lot for your congratulations in the name of
myself and my family,
Yours
Albrecht Deyhle
Dr. Deyhle thanks the Communi-

At the General Meeting of the International Controller Asso-
ciation on May 18 in Munich CEO Siegfried Gänßlen has
presented the Board Report. In his review on a successful
year 2013, he referred to a sustained growth through the
acquisition of numerous corporate members. Among 23 new
member companies in 2013 there are well-known names
such as American Express Europe, Audi, Federal Employ-
ment Agency (Germany), IBM Germany, Lufthansa, Migros
and Beiersdorf. What’s important, there are few new interna-
tonal company members from the non-German speaking
countires.
In the end of 2013 the ICV counted the 80 company mem-
bers, now there are already 94 As Gänßlen also announced
in May 2014, the ICV had on December 31, 2013 4.560 in-
dividual members in 36 countries, including 3.135 in Germa-
ny. In Switzerland the ICV had 449 members, in Austria —
444 and in Poland 128 members. In the Balkans the increase
in 2013 was particularly large: in Serbia plus 26, to 131
members now and in Croatia plus 33, to 63 members.
Dr. Adrianna Lewandow-
ska, ICV Board Member
and Dr. Herwig Friedag
(who celebrates 30 years
of his ICV membership in
2014) led a fosuced on
Balanced Scorecard in
Kaliningrad in June 2014.
At the invitation of Valen-
tin Usenkov, Head of the
local WG, the experts
shared their knowledge with a group of 80 people from le-
ading companies in the Kaliningrad Region.
To begin the process of implementation of the strategy,
except the strategy itself, you to that you need a change,
accept the fact that "no mistakes is the biggest mistake" and
that without action, even faulty, there will be no effects.
Management’s willingness to discuss the goals of the com-
pany with the team is also crucial.
Dr. Lewandowska and Dr. Friedag presented the BSC pro-
cess on the example of a case of a Kaliningrad fictional
university, , according to the assumption, is going to be esta-
blished in 2015. Analyzing the strategic and operational ob-
jectives, describing the process of building a strategy and
developing the mission and vision and a business model lof
the university led to the implementation process of the strate-
gy — culmination of discussions about the future of any com-
pany.
